they have arrived

george, george and phil arrived on thursday night and we've spent the last couple of days showing them the sights of geelong (in between drinks).

friday we met up in the bended elbow and went for a few drinks around town.


we later got a taxi up to the barking dog, where marra works. after a couple of drinks we went for something to eat then back to the dog to finish the night off.


a highlight of the night was gc making friends with a german lad with whom he sang "god save the queen" and "99 luftballons"


the long day took it's toll on geo...


but he soon perked up when he found a lady friend to chat up, unfortunately there's no photos available.

gc was very pleased with himself after selecting a few songs on the jukebox. six oasis tracks in a row.


on saturday we met up in the bended elbow (again) to take advantage of the 8 dollar lunch. from there marra gave the boys a bit of a tour round geelong before calling at the bottle shop to stock up on some christmas booze. phil's eyes lit up when he entered the 'booze supermarket'.


saturday night we had a bbq at marra's dad's house, where the lads are staying.

a few of us stayed up for the 2am united kick off. well worth watching for paul scholes' goal of the season.


well that's all for this update. today is christmas eve and it still doesn't feel at all like christmas. very strange. hope everyone is okay.

merry christmas all x
